Rio Grande River Headwaters

The headwaters of the mighty Rio Grand River can be found deep in the heart of the San Juan Mountains. To really appreciate this land an education in history seems appropriate. If the mountains and river could talk, they would have thousands of great stories to tell. The indisputable original inhabitants of this region were the Capote band of the Ute Indian tribe. It was the Rio Grande River headwaters that provided them a quality of life that many can only dream about in today’s crazy world.
